Add a function that accepts the size of the position array when reading
the audio positions. This makes it possible to decouple the position
array size from SPA_AUDIO_MAX_CHANNELS.
Also use SPA_N_ELEMENTS to pass the number of array elements to
functions instead of a fixed constant. This makes it easier to change
the array size later to a different constant without having to patch up
all the places where the size is used.
The PropInfo either has a registered id (and then also a name from the
type-info) or a custom name as a string.
In all cases, the description contains a free form text that clarifies
the property.
Use the description in the stream controls name.
Parse the quantum_limit parameters and use this to scale the buffers so
that they can contain the maximum allowed samples instead of the
hardcoded 8192 value.
See #1931
Make the alignment parameter optional when negotiating buffers.
Default to a 16 bytes alignment and adjust for the max cpu
alignment.
Remove the useless align buffer parameter in plugins, we always
set it to 16 anyway.
When we add a new listener to an object, it will emit the full state
of the object. For this it temporarily sets the change_mask to all
changes. Restore the previous state after this or else we might not
emit the right change_mask for the next listener.
Consider the case where one there are two listeners on an object.
The object emits a change and the first listener wants to enumerate the
changed params. For this is adds a new listener and then triggers the
enumeration. If we set the change_mask to 0 after adding the listener,
the second listener would get a 0 change_mask and fail to update
its state.
SPA_MEMBER is misleading, all we're doing here is pointer+offset and a
type-casting the result. Rename to SPA_PTROFF which is more expressive (and
has the same number of characters so we don't need to re-indent).
This is more in line with wayland and it allows us to create new
interfaces in modules without having to add anything to the type
enum. It also removes some lookups to map type_id to readable
name in debug.
The interface struct has the type,version and methods of the
interface.
Make spa interfaces extend from spa_interface and make a
separate structure for the methods.
Pass a generic void* as the first argument of methods, like
we don in PipeWire.
Bundle the methods + implementation in a versioned inteface
and use that to invoke methods. This way we can do version
checks on the methods.
Make resource and proxy interfaces that we can can call. We
can then make the core interfaces independent on proxy/resource and
hide them in the lower layers.
Add add_listener method to methods of core interfaces, just
like SPA.
Make struct spa_node_events for events emited from the main thread
and keep the spa_node_callbacks for the data thread callbacks.
The add_listener method installs the events and it's possible to
install multiple handles. Adding a listener first emits the info
and port_info events when installed, similar to how the PipeWire
proxy bind works.
This removes the need for the spa_pending_queue and makes it easier
to implement the _sync versions.
Add some helpers to make it easier for plugins to emit all the info
to new listeners.
Use the listeners for devices as well.
Add a new struct spa_param_info that lists the available params on
a node/port and if they are readable/writable/updated. We can use
this to replace and improve the PARAM_List and also to notify
property change and updates.
Update elements and code to deal with this new param stuff. Add
port and node info to most elements and signal changes.
Use async enum_params in -inspect and use the param info to know
which ones to enumerate.
Use the port info to know what parameters to update in the
remote-node.
Don't use special callback in node to receive the results. Instead,
use a generic result callback to receive the result. This makes things
a bit more symetric and generic again because then you can choose how
to match the result to the request and you have a generic way to handle
both the sync and async case. We can then also remove the wait method.
This also makes the remote interface and spa interface to objects very
similar.
Make a helper object to receive and dispatch results. Use this in the
helper for enum_params.
Make device use the same result callbacks.
Make a special function for pending results to make it clear that it
is different from normal results. Don't pass result code to result
function, it is not useful because since the callback is called, all
must be fine.
The spa_pending is removed from the list right before the callback
and can thus be freed in the callback. Pass the spa_pending in
the pending callback so that extra data can be added that way.
Reuse spa_pending objects in link and nodes instead of allocating. We
always only have one pending operation and we can cancel any pending
previous operation by removing the pending.
Remove the done and error callbacks. The error callback is in an
error message. The done callback is replace with spa_pending.
Make enum_params take a callback and data for the results. This allows
us to push the results one after another to the app and avoids ownership
issues of the passed data. We can then extend this to handle the async
case by doing a _wait call with a spa_pending+callback+data that will
be called when the _enum_params returns and async result.
Add a sync method.
All methods can now return SPA_RESULT_IS_ASYNC return values and you
can use spa_node_wait() to register a callback when they complete
with optional extra parameters. This makes it easier to sync and
handle the reply.
Make helper methods to simulate the sync enum_params behaviour for
sync nodes.
Let the transport generate the sequence number for pw_resource_sync()
and pw_proxy_sync(). That way we don't need to keep track of numbers
ourselves and we can match the reply to the request easily.
Add a port_info event. With this, we get updates to ports pushed to
us, which is more convenient and also allows for better dynamic
add/remove of ports.
We don't need to the PortChanged event anymore
We can remove the get_port_ids/get_n_ports/port_get_info methods.
Update plugins
Automatically parse and build key/value when in objects without having
to prefix the key with ":"
Automatically build control/value when in sequence without the "."
prefix.
Remove the builder with key/pod, taking a reference to the stack built
temporary pods is not allowed in c++. We can use the varargs version
with the same convenient syntax.
Remove the parser "*" option, it is unused.
Improve spa_pod_builder_add_* and spa_pod_parser_get_* and make them
look similar.
Only allow properties inside objects, this makes it easier to
iterate the object, which is needed for efficiently processing
control streams.
Add a choice type to mark variable properties.
SPA_TYPE_Enum -> SPA_TYPE_Id to avoid confusion with choice enum
Make it easier to allocate and initialize properties on the stack
Make more efficient methods to make objects.
